I'm going to Tayvallach tomorrow, in Dal Riada, Argyll. My parents are terribly busy with the van, but I and my sister will be sleeping in a tent because the van is too small now.

Fhuair mi a-mach am map na h-Alba agam agus lorg mi Taigh a' Bhealaich. Fhuair mi e, agus an uairsin leugh mi mu dheidhinn Dal Riada ann an Wikipedia. Bha sin glè inntinneach; cha robh dad a sgot agam mu dheidhinn Dhal Riada.
I got out my map of Scotland and I looked for Tayvallich. I found it , and then I read about Dal Riada in Wikipedia. That was very interesting; I didn't know anything about Dal Riada.

Dal Riada, inntinneach gu dearbh. Chluich mi an aghaidh Dal Riada ann an geam coimpiutair aon uair. Arthurian Total War ma tha cuimhn' agam.

<- Fios gun fheum.

Interesting. Saw in computer game. <- useless info.

Nach toil leinn fios gun fheum Is toil leamsa co-dhiù.
Don't we love useless info. I do.


Tha mi air tilleadh bho Alba an-raoir. Bha sinn ann an Glaschu agus anns an Eilean Sgitheanach. Chòrd e rium glan ged a dh'fhàs an dithis againne caran tinn agus an cnatan uabhasach agam fhathast is chaill mi mo ghuth.

I just returned from Scotland last night. We were in Glasgow and on Skye. I really liked it although we both became a bit ill and I still have a horrible cold and I lost my voice.


Fhuair mi cothroman airson a bhith a' bruidhinn 'sa Ghàidlig, le Coinneach agus luchd CnaG (chòrd e rium glan gad choinneachadh!), le reiceadair anns a' Chomhairle nan Leabhraichean (far a cheannaich mi tòrr leabhraichean a thionndaidh am mala-droma agam gu mala-troma), le deagh charaid a tha a' fuireach ann an Glaschu agus le Donaidh Rothach (Thachair sinn ris aig cuirm-chiùil agus abair duine cairdeil a th' annsan).

I found some opportunities to speak Gaelic, with Coinneach and the prople of CnaG (it was great meeting you), with a salesperson at CnL (where I bought a lot of books), with a good friend who lives in Glasgow and with Donnie Munro (We ran into him at a concert and what a very friendly person he is).

Chòrd e rium glan ged a dh'fhàs an dithis againne caran tinn agus an cnatan uabhasach agam fhathast is chaill mi mo ghuth.

Uill air a char as lugha bha thu an sin. Chan eil mise air a bhith san Alba, tinn no air mhodh eile!

At least you were there, haven't been in Scotland sick or otherwise.

Tha thu ceart. Tha mi an dòchas gum faigh thu cothrom dol an-siud cuideachd

You are right. I hope you get a chance to go there too

Ath-disathairne thèid sinn don ceòlchuirm air a' bhlàr a-muigh aig caisteal Glamais. Tha mi an dòchas gum bi i tioram. A' bhliadhna sa chaidh bha an t-uisge ann agus dh'fhàs an picnic fliuch. Tha mise air a bhith aig dha ceòlchuirm air a' bhlàr a-muigh a' bhliadhna an seo agus bha an t-uisge ann eadar turasan, ach s' e urainn dhuibh a cum blàth ma tha thu a' cur um aodach gu lèor

Next Saturday we are going to the open air concert at Glamis castle. I hope it will be dry. Last year it rained and the picnic got wet. I have been to two open air concerts this year and it rained both times, but you can keep warm if you wear enough clothes.

Tha mi dìreach air bruidhinn ris an t-SMO air an fhòn. 'S e m' agallamh gabhail a-steach dhan chùrsa adhartais a bh' ann, is rinn mi math gu leòr, mar a rinn mi leis a' mheasadh sgrìobhte. A rèir na leugh mi anns na module descriptions cha robh dùil eile agam, ach tha e fìor mhath dearbhadh fhaighinn.

I'm just off the phone with Sabhal Mòr Ostaig. That was my phone interview to get me into the cùrsa adhartais, and I passed just like I did the written test. Looking at the module descriptions I didn't expect anything else, but it's great to have confirmation.

Bidh a' chias clas fòn agam a-nochd

I'll have the first phone tutorial tonight

Viel Spass!

Tha mi an dòchas gun còrd e riut!

I hope you enjoy it!

Chòrd, chòrd.
I did.


Bha mo cheann a' dol an uairsin co-dhiù
My head went afterwards though

Smiley sgoinneil! Am faigh mi e?

Sgrìobh :tac: is presto pronto!

Bithibh faiceallach a-nis, tha faoileag cunnartach!

Be careful now, f. is dangerous!
